Really a thought provoking situation

Aztec Ace seems pretty cool, anyone know about it? Is it worth checking out?

Looks pulpy as fuck.
>The story revolves around a time traveller named Ace (real name: Caza), whose goal is to save the timestream from unraveling through various intricate adventures. Ace is from the 23rd Century, with his base in pre-contact Aztec Mexico; he often visits ancient Egypt. His main enemy is Nine-Crocodile, who creates time paradoxes in an attempt to save his own dimension at the expense of other realities, especially, the modern world as we know it.

Anything with a cosmic time-warping cocodrile as main antagonist it's worth a read

Yeah, you should really see these old lists from the 80's. Marvel really dominated the lists in the early 80's and then lost ground somewhere in the mid-80's when DC rebooted stuff with Man of Steel and Year One.

It's weird to think there was a day when DC's best selling franchise was the fucking Titans.

>>85252460
It's even weirder that their other successful franchise at the time was Legion.

>>85252460
It was one of DC's best selling franchises when Johns was writing it too

>>85252569
So was Aquaman and look where it was before Rebirth.

99% of dan diddo's comics are the "name comics" from the big two.
